Sensitive portrayal of young man/older woman love story complicated by driven career woman's pressures in the advertising business and rival adult admirers in the office. Advertising background interesting. Kamenashi excels at such a young age. The long hair, though, didn't really suit him IMHO. What was he - a teenage beachcomber or company aspirant? Much as it would be nice to combine both, it doesn't happen in the real world. It has enough twists and turns to keep you watching, although I had my doubts a corporate advertising background would excite me. The supporting characters were also good and believable, with some nice sub-plots. I took some time to get to the final episode because I always dislike things having to end. It was a good ending, however, slightly weepy in a good way but a realistic and well conceived HAPPY ending. I think it deserves a better overall score than 6.9, but it's the sort of series you enjoy watching once, unless you can't get enough of Kazuya Kamenashi, but I doubt I'd watch it again.
